NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Lipscomb men’s and women’s basketball Atlantic Sun Conference contests against USC-Upstate slated for Monday, Jan. 7 at 5 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. have been moved to earlier start times to avoid conflict with the BCS national championship game.

“It is important to us to have every one of our Bison supporters in Allen Arena as we begin the home portion of our A-Sun schedule,” said Lipscomb director of athletics Philip Hutcheson. “With that in mind, we thought moving our game times up would give all of the Lipscomb fans the chance to enjoy both our women's and men's games and still make it home in time to follow all of the other NCAA action that evening. We hope this helps our fans and look forward to having them with us as we take on USC Upstate next Monday night.”

The Lady Bisons are now set to tipoff at 2:30 p.m. followed by the men’s contest at 5 p.m.
